misd this one.. cud only read it from the news paper...
cudnt watch it because of this poshin boy only...
cable connection is disconnected at his place now cos of his 10th exams and i am at his place now..
Aww Chriz! That's sad. Never mind. Dare you say anything against my little bro! Hehe! :P What matters is being a part of this happiness, and enjoying the moment, watching it live is secondary, although it would have been great if you had. :)
Back@Tara

It's just that the west have discovered him now... We know him for wat he is from a lot of years..!!
The songs of ROJA still gets me goose pimples ....
Cheers..!!
Arjun
India made Pround.
JAI HOON. Danny boyle in one of his earlier interviews recommended some of Indian movies to the western audience like COMPANY, SATYA and BLACK FRIDAY. Just check the review of company at IMDB
Waiting for the day when a Indian film director wins an oscar. I presume that day is not that far away.
its amazing!! heartfelt congrats to AR Rehman...and others too
indeed a wonderful event to watch and an unforgettable experience...
Congrats to both of them..
Though there are people criticizing that the movie showed india as a slum, but he story was about slum, so what do they expect?
A good movie..it was.. I liked it very much
:)
This is just the beginning !
Roja : India :: Slumdog : West :)
just browse youtube for the jai ho! influence on the americans. just awesome :) and the acceptance speech about love and hate, wow! no words :) his modesty is what sets him apart.
nice post. do visit my blog and leave your comments :)
jai Ho! keep rahmaning :)
that was surely a memorable moment :)
legend!!
Thanks Sandeep! Yes, I love the template too! Jai ho Rahman sir...Jai ho Resul sir...but Jai ho Tara, no! I am not in that league, have to work a lot before getting there. :)
Same here Arjun! Roja is the ultimate! Slumdog is definitely not Rahman sir's best, far from it rather, but atleast this award has got him the recognition he deserved. And as he says, Opened new windows for him. :)
Yes Suresh, well said. I am waiting for that day too and it sure isn't far away. :)
Yes Raka! Congratulations to all the winners! :)
I wonder Aneesh how far the criticism is justified. The movie is about hope in the end. :)
Thanks Rahmaniac! Nice name. :) And yes, the modesty is what really sets him apart, and that is what will help him to achieve him even greater heights. :)
Yes it was truly Shimmer! :)
Legend Richa! :)
